Actually this is a great case and very reliable, much more then just something to keep your Z safe in at your house. I would totally trust this case on the road. I would say it is equal to or better then any Fender case I have owned.

The Dean Z is a Huge guitar so expect this case to be a lot bigger then that for a strat. Has a huge compartment for storage, your cables, straps picks and everything else will fit with room to spare. Any Z will fit into this case perfectly, the inside is perfectly custom molded.

Looks great to esp. with the Dean Logo on it.
